Users playing in multiplayer Quake 3 may wish to change the color of their online aliases. This requires that the user insert special characters. For example, if a user wanted their name to be blue they would type ^4name as their name
- Enter "Setup"
- Select "Player"
- In the name type the name you wish to use with the color codes in the spots you want to have a different color below is a list of each number and what color each number represents.
0 = Black
1 = Red
2 = Green
3 = Yellow

If you want to change the color of your name while in the game you can also use the "/name" command from the console (accessed by pressing the ~ key).
